HomeMy WebLinkAbout982298.tiff MEMORANDUM TO: Scott Ballstadt, Current Planner II DATE: August 13, 1998 CFROM: Donald Carroll. Engineering Administrator ,' COLORADO SUBJECT: Z-515; Bill Hall/Lindies Lake, Change of Zone The Weld County Public Works Department has reviewed this proposal, the following requirements are recommended to be a part of any approval: • COMMENTS: The Planned Unit Development sketch plan is for seven residential lots on 80 acres and will access from WCR 51. This is designated on the Transportation Plan Map as a Collector Status road and requires 80 feet of right-of-way at full build out, there is now 60 feet. The most current Average Daily Traffic Count on WCR 51 is 362 vehicles in a 24-hour period from May 6 and 7, 1998. Storm Water Drainage: The drainage pattern on the property that will have additional impervious area does not have off-site flows entering the site. The runoff from the seven lots flows into Lindies Lake. The additional impervious area creates a small increase of runoff into the lake due to the very low density. No storm drainage study will be required. Traffic Impact Analysis: WCR 51 is a Collector Status road. The applicant has reserved an additional 10 feet of right-of-way through the PUD section for future build out. Our collector roads are capable of handling a great deal more traffic and the seven lots would increase the count about 40±trips in a 24-hour period. A 50-foot bus, pickup, and deceleration lane at the entrance to the PUD will accommodate additional traffic. No traffic study will be required. The applicant is indicating that the surface of the road will be 22 feet of asphalt with six inches of base and a 65-foot cul de sac at the end of each driveway. There should be a typical cross section on the plat identifying width and depth of asphalt and base, width of shoulder, borrow pit ditches, and right-of-way which meets the County standards. REQUIREMENTS: The applicant should submit a street name to identify the internal road system. If not, the county will assign a road number to this PUD area. Stop signs will also need to be supplied. The applicant must reserve an additional 10 feet of right-of-way through the Planned Unit Development section for future build out of WCR 51. cc: Commissioner Webster Weld County Planning Dept.

According to the submitted materials, based upon the number of proposed lots, this is an urban scale development in what appears to be a non-urban area. Therefore, this proposal does not appear to comply with PUD Ordinance No. 197. In the event that your Department determines that the proposal complies with the PUD Ordinance, we have prepared the following recommendation. The application has satisfied PUD Ordinance No. 197 in regard to water and sewer service. Water will be provided by the North Weld Water District and sewer will be provided by individual sewage disposal systems. The minimum proposed lot sizes (>3.5 acres) and the overall density of homes per acreage (1 home per 11.4 acres) meets current Department policy. The potential environmental impact plan provided in the application materials and required in section 6.3.1.2.1 of the PUD Ordinance appears to adequately address all potential impacts as described in that section. However, we are concerned with the sedimentation of Lindies Lake during construction of the proposed structures, septic systems, etc. Other than this item, our staff is not aware of any potential environmental impacts or risks that this proposed development may pose that may represent an increased environmental impact or risk in excess of other similar developments. We have addressed potential sedimentation of the ponds in a standard below. Our staff observed numerous agricultural type homes in the vicinity of the site. Many of these homes have livestock that include but may not be limited to cows and horses. It is our opinion that any future property owner should be made aware that these agricultural uses exist and that they may be exposed to noise, dust, flies, odors, etc. in excess of the common urban experience. As a result, we recommend that the "Right to Farm" covenant be required to be placed on any recorded plat. In the event that you find the submitted application to comply with the PUD Ordinance, we recommend that the following conditions be a part of any approval: 1) The applicant shall obtain water service from the North Weld County Water District. id EXHIBIT 95'299 --�-- Bill Hall/Lindies Lake Page 2 2) Silt fences shall be maintained on the downgradient portion of the site during all phases of construction on all lots in the development. 3) A Weld County Septic Permit is required for the proposed home septic systems and shall be installed according to the Weld County Individual Sewage Disposal Regulations. All septic systems shall be installed a minimum of two hundred (200) feet from Lindies Lake, with the exception of Lot 2 which must lie a minimum of one hundred fifty (150) feet from Lindies Lake. 4) The applicant indicated that animal units will be addressed in the covenant for Estate Zoning. The common open space will allow for animals along this area. 5) The open space maintenance shall include removal of manure in a manner that will prevent nuisance conditions and not allow runoff into Lindies Lake. The manure piles shall not be allowed to exist or deteriorate to a condition that facilitates excessive odors, flies, insect pests or pollutant runoff. Please note: The Weld County Health Department, Environmental Protection Services recommends alternative strategies regarding water conservation and waste minimization. Considerations such as xeriscaping, low flow water fixtures, backyard composting and recycling are a few options available to home owners. We also recommend that preliminary radon mitigation measures be incorporated in the construction of new homes. Radon kits are available in our office.

With regard to Mr. Hall's Answers to County Regulations, • The potential for water pollution(6.3.1.2.1.7) is supposed to decrease, due to the reduced use of pesticides and fertilizers. However, it appears herbicide use will increase (6.3.1.2.1.1.5)with spring and fall weed spraying. • Wetlands will be disturbed very little (6.3.1.2.1.8),but there is no mention of a survey to delineate the wetlands. This should be performed before any lots are sold. • The lots are large enough to use on site systems and soils reports indicate that on site systems will work (6.3.3.2.2). No percolation tests were included in either of my submittals and there was no subsurface investigation to determine depth to groundwater. Onsite ISDS may need to be engineered. None of the comments raised in my May 12 letter was addressed. I am concerned that the lots may be sold with new owners unaware that they may face problems with shallow groundwater, problem soils, and construction that requires wetlands permits. At this time, CGS cannot recommend approval of the site. Please call me if there are any questions. urs truly �� G Celia Greenman Geologist F,T.ni .42.- o STATE OF COLORADO COLORADO GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Division of Minerals and Geology Department otNatural Resources 1313 Sherman Street, Room 71 7155 Denver,Colorado 80203 Phone(303)866-2611 FAX(303)866-2461 May 12, 1998 DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES Roy Romer Mr. Scott Ballstadt Weld County Planning Department s or}Mead P way Director 1400 N. 17th Ave. Mir Haul 6.Long Greeley, CO 80631 w"`ion Director Vicki Cowan State Geologist and Director Re: Lindies Lake PUD CGS Review No. WE-98-0033 Dear Mr. Ballstadt: In response to your request and in accordance with Senate Bill 35 (1972) I visited this property to review the plat. A Geologic and Mineral Evaluation prepared by Foundation & Soils Engineering(March 1998)was included in the referral. The site is composed of cultivated fields (the southern part of lot 2 and to the south) and vacant land in lot 1 and the remainder of lot 2. 1) Wetlands. Lot 1 contains a wetlands area that should be delineated on the plat after a wetlands survey is performed by qualified personnel. Any modification to wetlands areas is subject to Army Corps of Engineers evaluation and approval. 2) Soil. Much of the soil on Lot 1 and the northern part of Lot 2 is soft and probably has a high organic content. This characteristic is associated with a tendency toward long term consolidation and subsequent building settlement. For this reason, it is imperative that the building envelope for this lot be drilled and samples be collected for geotechnical analysis. Locations where organic soils are found should be abandoned or the soils should be totally excavated and replaced with a structural fill. The soil on the remaining part of lot 2 and lots 3 through 7 consists of a fine-grained sand. This material should provide good subgrade for foundations, although there may be a tendency to cave in cut slopes. I recommend that the building envelopes for each lot be examined before construction, either by excavating test pits or drilling, to obtain information on the soil profiled, depth to bedrock and depth to groundwater. Samples should be collected at the foundation level for geotechnical analysis of strength, density, moisture content, and swell-consolidation potential. Foundations should be designed based on the results of the tests. `I:s2298 Lindies Lake PUD,p.2 Shallow bedrock that is present will increase the cost of excavation. Areas of excavated fill dirt on lots 1 and 2 should be removed. If this material is to be used as engineered fill, the geotechnical characteristics must first be determined. 3) Groundwater. Shallow groundwater,which is almost certainly present on lots 1 and 2, but should be investigated at each lot, signifies limitations for home design and siting of leach fields. No basement construction should be undertaken in areas of shallow groundwater (within 8 ft of the surface), and it may be necessary to set the foundations on raised pads to avoid flooding and/or seepage. Basement construction may be feasible for lots 3 through 7, but any subgrade construction should be accompanied by perimeter drains. Leach fields should be sited a minimum of 50 ft from the lake and wetlands areas. Where groundwater is present at depths of 5 ft or less from the surface, leach fields should be engineered, either mounded absorption systems or mounded evapotranspiration/adsorption systems. In summary, the issues for development concern areas that are prone to wetness, either from surface flooding or groundwater on lots 1 and 2, and the potential for unsuitable soils for foundations on these same lots. Before development begins, a subsurface investigation should be performed and the wetlands area should be delineated. Building envelopes should be outlined for lots 1 and 2. CGS recommendation of approval of this PUD is contingent on these items. Please call me if there are any questions.

August 21, 1998 AUG 2 5 1998 Weld County Planning Department Attn: Scott Ballsadt RECEIVED 1400 N . 17th Ave Greeley, CO 80631 re : Bill Hall/Lindies Lake PUD NE 1/4, S20, T6N, R64W Dear Mr . Ballsadt, The following comments are in regard to the Lindies Lake PUD . The North Side Lateral ditch runs along the east side of the above mentioned property. The map refers to this canal as the Greeley No . 2 ditch . This canal has been in existence for nearly 100 years and The North Side Lateral Company has a prescriptive easement along the canal . This easement is necessary for the ditch company to continue to operate as it has over the years . The right-of-way is necesary for operation and maintenance of the canal, including but not limited to access for water delivery, weed control, canal burning, excavation, storage of materials, etc . The proposed common area trail that is indicated on the map appears to be right along the canal and therefore is within this right-of-way. Due to liability concerns the North Side Lateral Company prohibits access to the right-of-way by other persons and vehicles . Permission must be granted by the ditch company to utilize its right-of-way. Permission has not been granted for this development . In light of this the North Side Lateral Company oppoocs this portion of the development proposal . The ditch company does not oppose the idea of a trail being a part of the plan but would note that there is sufficient area along the east side of the lake to permit the building and enjoyment of a trail . The ditch company would encourage the placement of the trail away from the canal and its easement . If further clarification or information is needed please contact our office . Sincerely, Dale D .

My comments below are based on his discussion; the Preliminary Subsurface and Percolation Investigation prepared by Foundation& Soils Engineering,Inc. (April 1998); and two letters from the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers(May 6, 1998 and August 17, 1998) concerning the wetlands. 1) Wetlands. Mr. Walsh plans to dredge the lake to improve storage. In doing so,wetlands along the west and north sides of the lake will be disturbed. The Corps letter of August 17 states that no permit will be required for the work. Therefore,no further investigation is required by the developer. 2) Groundwater. The depth to groundwater ranges between 5 and 10 ft below ground level. Without additional fill material,basement construction is not recommended in the area. Mr. 1E1 j'{ �akslt is tentatively considering adding fill to the lots to build up the grade,and proposes homes with walkout basements as a possible design. The feasibility of this design should be evaluated by the engineering consultant on a lot-by-lot basis after earthwork is completed. Perimeter drains should be an adjunct of any home with subgrade construction. I recommend that dewatering equipment be present on site during foundation excavation. This is mandatory if drilled pier foundations are used. 3) Soils. The geotechnical tests performed on three samples indicate the onsite soils have a low to nil potential for swell or consolidation,indicating the soil is a good subgrade for construction. A possible plan to build up the grade on the lots is to deposit the dredged material from the lake onto the lot sites. The dredged material is likely to contain significant organic material, which would make it unsuitable for foundation subgrade,due to the potential for long-term consolidation. Before using this material as fill in building envelopes or under driveways,this soil must be analyzed for geotechnical parameters and judged to be acceptable. The lakebed soil could be used suitably for fill in other parts of the lots. Lindies Lake PUD,p.2 4) Septic systems. Foundation& Soils Engineering recommend engineered systems for four of the five lots tested(the plat has since changed to include seven lots). I agree with this recommendation based on the presence of shallow groundwater and shallow bedrock. Before installation of the septic systems,each site should be perc tested and the depth to groundwater and bedrock should be determined. In summary, the concerns at the site relate to shallow groundwater. Lot-specific testing will need to be performed before the construction of homes and the installation of septic systems is undertaken. Soil from the lakebed must be analyzed to assess its suitability as fill material at building sites. Please call me if there are any questions. �4urs truly, /-� �4 / Celia Greenman Geologist 99?298 Hello
